In a letter to parents,  BCPS said they are investigating, but did not comment on Eiswert’s current status citing private personnel matters.

Superintendent Myriam Rogers released a statement calling the recording “deeply disturbing.”

“I understand how upsetting this recording is for many members of the Team BCPS community,” said Rogers. “We will not tolerate disparaging remarks about any member of the Team BCPS community.”

Baltimore County Executive Johnny Olszewski also responded to the recording stating that “hate and discrimination has no place within our community.”

“Hate, discrimination, and prejudice have no place in our community — especially in our schools. The statements being circulated are abhorrent and my administration is providing our full support to BCPS as they conduct as they conduct a thorough investigation. Following the conclusion of this investigation, I know swift action will be taken to hold those involved accountable.”
